About the Book

Anyone wishing to improve his/her learning will benefit from Super-Charged Learning, but it is especially intended for parents of K-12 children. What parents know about their children is what should make them critical players for their children. Knowing how to apply life-experiences to learning is what Super-Charged Learning is about. Parents know their children’s experiences and can show them how to use these experiences to learn. Super-Charged Learning uses the skill-sets that elite athletes use to be champions. Now parents can show their children how to use these to be champions . . . in their academics. Athletes want to be bigger-faster-stronger. Make your child that kind of learner: learn bigger quantities of information, learn faster, hold onto what’s learned longer.
